DIYARBAKIR, Turkey (Reuters) - Turkey's pro-Kurdish opposition party accused the government on Wednesday of standing aside in the face of attempts to "push the country into a civil war" by fomenting violence in the mainly Kurdish southeast.

Four people have been killed since Tuesday and two people were shot and wounded overnight in the city of Diyarbakir, bringing the total wounded to seven, security sources said.
